AT the Evangelical church the same
happy scene was being enacted by the
members of the church and school as has
always made their Christmas festivals
grand success. "Peace on earth good will
toward men" seemed to echo and re-echo
throughout the corridors of the edi6ce, fill
ing all with the good cheer usual on the
entrance of the glad Christmas tide. The
evenings exercises consisted of singing of
hymns, addresses and recitations, by schol-
ars, choir and pastor, and last but not least
the distribution of Christmas gifts.

AT the Reformed church, on Lehigh
street, an elegant programme had been ar
ranged and no trouble or expense saved to
make it's rendition grand success. Owing
to some difficulty, however, the programme
was not carried out as fully as had been
expected by those present, nevertheless, the
singing of the anthems and addresses were
grand success. The hearts of the little
ones beat fast and wild during the evening
as they awaited with eager expectation the
distribution of Christmas gifts in which
they were all happily remembered.

Or give sigh for sight
I'll not leave thee, thoulone onel
To pine on the stem;
Since the lovely are sleeping,
Go, sleep thou With them;
Thus kindly scatter
Thy leaves DER the bed
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead

When friendships decay,
And from loves shining circle
The gems drop awayl
When true hearts lie wthered,
And fond ones are flown,

New YORK, May 23
The snubbing business, or the social boy
colt, is niuch resorted to il. this city. When
somebody does something to offend one of a
political faction. a literary clique or social
band, the other members of said faction,
clique or band take it as a deadly insult to
the entire fraternity, and punish the insultsr
by pretending that they do not know of his
existence. This is a very odd method of
making the earth bitter for each other, and
that still proves efficacious. 1t is the
most arrogant and offensive form Of punish
ment, as it implies, In the one who admins
ters it, an assurance of superior position per-
fectly CALLING to the one upon whom it is ad-
ninistered And besides, although inflicted
upon a superior, it actually too often
has the power to belittle him In
his own estimation. As my laun-
dress describes it as it prevails In her
circle, ITO make you look down on yourself
iii your own mindn Just now rich and
densely literary gentleman here is being boy
cotted by political gang whose displeasure
he has aroused, and they say he is weak
enough to be tornented by it. Stumbling Is
an art which women exercise in its highest
perfection. It has been their weapon since
society was organized, and they take 1t up
for little and big offenses. They are pronest,
however, to exercise it on their own sex, not
always having the courage to try it on men,
The stronger sex feel it just as much, though.
